OUR PROCESS
KBA Architecture’s design approach puts you, the client, at the center of the process. Our team will guide you or your company in a professional and transparent manner in addressing the following:
Pre-Design & Programming
Through consultation and collaboration, we delve deep into understanding our client's aspirations, needs, and unique identity. By listening attentively and engaging in open dialogue, we gather insights that inform the foundation of our design approach. This pre-design phase is dedicated to cultivating a shared vision, building trust, and laying the groundwork for a collaborative partnership that will shape the future of the project.
Schematic Design
The schematic design phase marks the transition from concept to tangible vision. Guided by our understanding of the client's aspirations and needs, we translate ideas into preliminary sketches and conceptual plans. Through thoughtful consideration of spatial layout, aesthetics, and functionality, we craft a design that reflects your unique identity and vision. This phase is characterized by collaboration, where client feedback shapes the evolving design, ensuring that the concept resonates with your goals and values.
Design development
Building upon the schematic design, we delve deeper into details, interior and exterior finish selections, and technical considerations. Throughout the process, we maintain open communication with our clients, ensuring your vision remains at the forefront of every decision.
Construction documentation
In the construction document phase, our architecture firm meticulously translates the finalized design into comprehensive and detailed drawings and specifications based on the project’s needs. Design decisions are coordinated and documented to ensure clarity and precision during the construction process. These documents serve as the roadmap for contractors and builders, ensuring that the client's vision is realized with accuracy and efficiency.
bidding & negotiations
During this phase, we orchestrate a transparent and collaborative process to select the right contractors for the project. We issue invitations to bid to qualified contractors that align with our client's goals and expectations. Throughout negotiations, we prioritize open communication, advocating for our client's best interests. By fostering a partnership mindset and leveraging our expertise, we aim to secure the highest quality of workmanship and service for our clients.
contract administration
During the construction administration phase, our firm acts as an advocate for the owner by providing document control, submittal review and design clarification.
